Strawberry Nut M&M’s Yes You Read That Right

I wouldn’t blame you for doing a double take on today’s blog post because I certainly did in the shop. Strawberry Nut M&Ms are an actual thing! Any American’s or avid American chocolate lovers will know that M&M’s did chocolate covered strawberry M&M’s last year, however the difference here is they’ve thrown peanuts into the mix.  Now I understand Strawberry M&M’s because well strawberries and chocolate is just so YES, but plonking a big ol peanut in there is pretty intriguing.  I spied these in my trusty Garden Centre Longacres (where I also found Mint M&M’s) and they were instantly…

The Coconut Collaborative Little Lemon Temptations

There’s a brand new dairy free dessert on the block and comes in the form of these fluorescent yellow packaged The Coconut Collaborative Little Lemon Temptations*. The Coconut Collaborative already has a jam packed repertoire spanning yoghurts, frozen goodies and dessert pots and yet I confess I haven’t had any of them.  These little Lemon Temptations join the dessert range and sit alongside the Mini Choc Pots and Rice Puddings. So what makes these pots worthy of your pennies? As well as being dairy, soya and gluten free, they’re suitable for vegans and they have squished the goodness and benefits from…

Magnum Double Peanut Butter Bar

We all know that Magnum do a Peanut Butter Ice Cream lolly, but did you know that they also do the Magnum Double Peanut Butter Chocolate Bar? Personally I hadn’t a clue and I found this little gem tucked away in Home Bargains.  I have never had a Magnum chocolate bar and to be honest I don’t really care for their ice cream lolly either so the only thing this chocolate bar had going for it was the promise of peanut butter. Stubby in appearance, for a mere 50p it wasn’t too badly priced.  Milk chocolate bar with peanuts and a soft…

Collective For Kids Banana n Vanilla

Banana is such a delicious flavour but so underused. You can bet your bottom dollar that if there is something banana flavoured I am going to want to try it and today is no exception with the new Collective For Kids Banana n Vanilla yoghurt. I have seen their tantalising flavours but have partaken in a Collective yoghurt until now. This new flavour sits alongside Mango n Peach and Strawberry n Raspberry. They maybe designed for kiddies but frankly that isn’t going to stop me, adults can enjoy banana yoghurts too you know! Made with whole milk, no nasties, vegetarian friendly and gluten free, this…

Hippeas Chickpea Puffs

Hip Hip Hippeas* it’s nearly the weekend! I confess that I have seen these about, how can you not with their vibrant yellow packaging, however I have never bought any purely on the basis of them being made from chickpeas. I have no qualms with chickpeas but when it comes to snacks and crisps I am a potato kind of gal and that is where the hand reaches.  Hippeas* are asking you and I to #GivePeasAChance with their range of organic chickpea puffs. Currently in 5 not so generic flavours, these snacks are high in fibre, a good source of…
